Three Bridges Shares Quick & Easy Dinner Ideas for Busy School Nights
Premium refrigerated pasta company highlights convenient, better-for-you recipes to make fall menus a breeze
BENICIA, Calif., Aug. 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Back to school means the return of hectic morning schedules, after-school activities and homework. A busy fall agenda doesn't mean having to compromise on serving wholesome and delicious family dinners. Three Bridges, known for its premium line of refrigerated pastas and sauces, shares simple, convenient and delicious recipes for the upcoming school year and beyond.
A recent study on fast food consumption conducted by the University of Michigan-Dearborn Economics found that it's the busiest people—often the middle class—that consume the most fast food.
Chef Craig Schauffel, vice president of research and culinary innovation at Three Bridges, invites families to buck the trends. "When school is back in session, quick and easy dinners are essential for keeping the family on schedule and on track with healthy nutrition," said Schauffel. "Instead of resorting to take-out, which is often high in sodium and trans fats, keep it simple and stress-free with these family-friendly dinner hacks, courtesy of Three Bridges."
